COMBINED HAND AND FOOT MOTOR FOR GHURNS.

Specification of Letters Patent.

Patented Feb. 25, 1908.

Application filed September 17. 1907- Serial No. 393.369.

T 0 all whom it may concern:

Be it known that I, DANIEL PUMP MA- LONE, a citizen of the United States, residing at Rockwood, in the county of Franklin and State of Alabama, have invented certain new and useful Improvements in Combined Hand and Foot Motors for Churns; and I do hereby declare the following to be a full, clear, and exact description of the invention, such as will enable others skilled in the art to which it appertains to make and use the same.

My invention relates to combined hand and foot motors for churns, and the object of my invention is to provide'such a motor that will be simple in construction, cheap to manufacture, certain in operation, which shall .be easily taken apart and cleaned, and which shall be equally as well adapted to be operated by either the hand or the foot.

To these ends my invention consists in the combination of parts more fully hereinafter disclosed and particularly pointed out in the claims.

Referring to the accompanying drawings forming a part of this specification :-Figure 1 represents a side elevational view of my Fig. 2, an end elevational view. Fig. 3, a sectional view of the complete device. Fig. 4, a detached detail view of the head of the dasher rod and its connections with the motor. Fig. 5 a perspective view of the dasher, its rod, and attached cam plate, and Fig. 6, a perspective view of the eccentric which drives the dasher.

Like letters refer to the same parts in all the views.

A represents a suitable base, B a standard rising therefrom, and C, D and E three horizontal shafts supported by said standard.

F represents an enlarged bearin or head integrally connected with said stan ard B by the short neck Q, or it may be made separate from said standard B and connected therewith by a separate piece. Suitably pivoted upon the shaft C is the foot lever G, supported at its outer end by a short standard B and suitably ivoted upon the shaft D I provide the whee M provided with a groove N. A link H connects the foot lever G with the pin J passing through said wheel M, and provided with a nut K on one side and a washer L on the other. The pin J is sufliciently long and of a sufficient size to serve as a handle to operate the wheel M by hand'if the link H and foot lever G should be disconnected from the machine.

shown in Figs..l, and 2,

Suitably attached to the shaft E is the wheel P likewise provided with a groove, and the cord or other band connection 0 joins the said wheels M and P, and serves to transmit power from the one to the other. The shaft E is provided at its end opposite from that on which the wheel P is iiXed, with a disk R, provided with a pin S eccentrically placed thereon, as clearly shown in Fig. 6. This disk R I have shown as being formed integral with the shaft E, but, of course, I may form it separate therefrom and suitably .attach it to said shaft.

The eccentric pin-S is provided with a suitable roller T. The head F is provided with a slotted, or cut away, face, best shown in Fig. 4, over which slides the cam grooved plate A, rigidly attached to the dasher rod V, and inwhose cam groove B. the eccentric pin S, with its roller T, slides. The head or bearing F is also provided. at its top and bottom with suitable guide grooves for the dasher rod V to work in, as best shown in Figs. 3 and 4, and it is also provided with undercut grooves C for the cover W to slide in. The cover W is provided with a suitable groove at its center. to accommodate the dasher rod V, as indicated by the dotted lines in Fig. .3. The cam grooved plate A is provided with vertical bearing edges E, which take against and are guided by the vertical edges D of the outer walls ,of the grooves C, as best shown in Fig. 4. At the lower end of the dasher rod V, I provide a suitable dasher F. A churn G, provided with a suitable cover H is received in, a suitable recessed seat J formed in the base A, as. shown. I preferably provide my-churn with a pair of cam lugs K, as shown in Fig. 1, which take under a pair of suitable fastenings lug L, as best rigidly attached to the seat J. The effect of the lugs L, K, is to firmly lock and hold the churn in place, while when it is desiredto remove the churn, or unlock the same, it is only necessary to turn the churn bodily around until the lugs K disengage the lugs L.

The operation of my power transmitting- Whenever it is desired to disassemble the parts for cleaning, the cover W is removed from the bearing F, the dasher disengaged from the eccentric S and 'taken from the churn. The shaft E may then be taken out of the connection Q, which frees the wheel P, The nut K is readily removed, and the link H and lever G as readily disassembled. When this is done, the wheel M, with its shaft D, can be easily removed from the standards B, and the whole machine is thus taken apart, and ready for scalding and cleansing. Of course it can be just as readily assembled and started into operation again.

By removing the nut K and the link H, as above described, the pin J serves as a handle to operate the Wheel M and the churn may be driven by hand.

Having now described my invention, what I claim, is

1. In a combined hand and foot motor for churns, the combination of a base, a standard rising therefrom, three horizontal shafts carried by said standard, a foot lever carried by one of said shafts, and a grooved wheel carried by each of the others, a link connecting said foot lever and one of said wheels, and a band joining the said wheels, an eccentric carried by one of said shafts, a dasher rod carrying a cam plate in which said eccentric operates, said cam plate provided with the straight guide edges E, bearings against which said edges slide, and a dasher attached to said rod, substantially as described.

2. In a combined hand and foot motor for churns, the cornbinationpf a base, two standards rising therefrom, three horizontal shafts carried by one of said standards, a foot lever carried by one of said shafts and supported by both of said standards, and a grooved wheel carried by each of the others, a link connecting said foot lever and one of said wheels, and a band joining the said wheels, a disk provided with an eccentric having a roller carried by one of said shafts, a dasher rod carrying a cam plate having a heart shaped cam in which said eccentric operates, said cam plate provided with the straight guide edges E, bearings against which said edges slide, and a dasher attached to said rod, substantially as described.

3. The combination of a .churn and a com bined hand and foot motor provided with a base, two standards rising therefrom, a shaft I passing through said standards, a foot lever carried by said shaft, a second shaft carried by one of said standards, a wheel on said second shaft and provided with the pin J, said pin being of such dimensions as to be capable of being used as a handle, alink connecting said lever and pin, a washer and a nut on said pin, a third shaft carried by one of said standards, a second wheel fixed to said third shaft, a band connecting said wheels, a bearing or head F carried by one of said standards through which said third shaft passes, a disk carryin an eccentric pin and roller carried by said t ird shaft and working in said head F, a dasher rod provided with a plate having a heart shaped cam therein, receiving said pin and roller, said plate having straight guide edges E, and said head F having straight guide edges D against which said edges E slide, said head F also having undercut grooves C, a cover W working in said grooves, and a .dasher F on said dasher rod, substantially as described.

4. The combination of the base A, provided with the seat J and lugs K, the stand ards B and B, the shaft 0, journaled in said standards, the foot lever G, carried by said shaft, the shaft D carried by said standard B, the wheel M carried by said shaft and provided with the groove N and pin J, the Washer L, and nut K on said pin, the link H joinin said lever G and pin J, the shaft E, the wheeI I carried by one end of the same, the band 0 connecting said wheels M and P, the head F, the connection Q between the same and said standard, the said head provided with the undercut grooves C, having the straight edges D the disk R, eccentric S and roller '1 carried by said shaft E, said disk fitting into a recess with which said head F is provided, the dasher rod V provided with the plate A having the straight edges E adapted to slide on the said edges D, and the heart shaped cam B in which said pin and roller is adapted to operate, a dasher F on said rod, a churn G, and lugs L on said churn, adapted to engage the lugs K on said seat, substantially as described.

In testimony whereof, I affix my signature, in presence of two Witnesses.
